Fighting the motorist’s corner

My name is Graeme Cunningham, and I am a specialist criminal and road traffic lawyer. I am the founder and owner of Keep Me Driving. I am often asked why I started Keep Me Driving. The answer I always give is straightforward: to fight the motorist’s corner!

In some ways, I am sorry that you have found this website because it means that either you, a family member or a friend needs legal advice regarding a motoring matter. You are probably being prosecuted, have received a Notice of Intended Prosecution, have been ticketed or charged by the police. That, of course, is the bad news. The good news is that I am here to fight your corner.

We have spent many years watching proceedings in both the Justice of The Peace and Sheriff Courts, and I can assure you that it is very difficult to be confident about obtaining a positive outcome without professional legal representation.

The Procurator Fiscal and the Police have massive resources to throw at prosecuting the “easy target” motorist. The almost non-existent availability of Legal Aid in Road Traffic cases means that, in the vast majority of motoring cases, the accused is unrepresented. This creates a massive inequality of arms, in this type of case, for those who are not professionally represented.

We offer our clients:

Free no obligation initial consultation, either in person or on the telephone (up to 30 minutes)
No nonsense, straight-talking approach with an honest assessment of your case
Affordable fixed fees
Pay by instalment option
Scotland wide coverage
No travel costs charged (except Kirkwall, Lerwick, Stornoway and Wick)
Evening and weekend appointments available
Solicitor available 24/7 by telephone

The courts are becoming increasingly busy with motoring cases. Many unrepresented accused talk of how they feel they were put under pressure to plead guilty just to get rid of matters. Many more talk of simply pleading guilty to avoid the hassle and expense of going to court. We are committed to protecting the motorist accused of committing motoring offences, which are often poorly prepared and have little, if any, supporting evidence by levelling up the playing field with our professional representation.
